The Genesis is by far and away Sega’s most successful video game system. Although many people prefer the Super Nintendo as their 16-bit mothership, there is no debating one thing: The Genesis blew the SNES out of the water when it came to sports games. EA Sports and Sega had a remarkable partnership in the 90’s, and many of the premier sports games on the market still hail from this system (ex. Madden Championship Edition). With the crappy NES and even shittier SNES games already covered, we will dive balls deep in the Sega systems, and analyze each athlete-endorsed video game for the Sega, Genesis, Sega CD, Sega 32X, and Sega Saturn. Grab a drink, this may take awhile.

This game could be worse than 10 Yard Fight, but having Sweetness on the cover of it makes it top ten

Not really “Most obscure pseudo-athlete”. The game wasnt really launched for a American audience that doesnt care about F1, but for European and South American crowds. Obscure most of “football” dudes who sponser games that are only known in America but outside US(& Canada), are Obscure pseudo-athletes. Baseball at least has Japan & Central America but “football”…where else but in America & Canada is it played?

Ricardo,
Thank you for shedding light on who Senna was. You are absolutely right that Americans (for the most part) do not follow F1 racing. My countrymen will always be more focused on football, basketball, baseball, and hockey above all else.
